Hello everyone, my name is Toby and I registered here to see anyone could help me with my car's very annoying problem.
It's a 00 zx3 with 77,000 miles on it. I am the second owner and it's been well taken care of. I have had it for 3 months and put an intake on it the first week I bought it and it was working great.
Yesterday I started it up and the rpms would rise to 1,000 drop to the point of almost stalling and then pick back up. I didn't pay much attention but when I was driving it surges terribly and has absolutely no power even when I have the accelerator pinned down. I took it to autozone so they could tell me what could possibly be wrong with it and the computer said it could be the the spark plugs, vacuum and 2 others I don't remember. But I replaced the spark plugs and it help it idle slightly better but the same surging and loss of power when I am driving at almost any speed still remains.
Any suggestions are welcome!! thanks a lot!
